SUPPLEMENTAL SHIPPINGSUMMARY.

Busuniss, since our usual monthly summary on the 2nd imt., has been tolerably brisk, the arrivals foreign numbering six, and the departure* seven. The weather ha« been unusually boisterous and squally, with a heavy rainfall. The arrivals and departures foreign are given below. The P,N.Z., *nd A.E.M. Co.'s s.s. Auckland, Captain Harris, sailed on the 2nd instant for Sydney, with a general cargo, a parcel of gold, and 50 passengers. _ , H.M. s. Esk, Captain Luce, took her nnal departure from these waters on the 3rd, h«rr time of service on this station having expired. The occasion was an interesting one to the crews of the men-of-war in port— H.M. sCharybdis and Brisk. Before leaving, the noblevessel steamed round the last-mentioned ships, aud was greeted with manned ya*ds and hearty cheers, which were exchanged very cordially until the vessels parted company. The farewell signals and other courtesies characteristic of the occasion were exchanged as the vessel got fairly under weigh for the North H*ad. The Esk proceeds via Magellan Straits, calling at Bahia on the way. H.M, s. Charybdis, Captain Lyons, got up steam on the 3rd, and his Excellency the Governor having been received on board with, manned yards, she left the harbour for Wellington. His Exoelleuoy, who ■was accompanied by his private secretary, the Rev. Thatcher, aud Major Gray, aide de-camp, proceeds to Wellington in order to open the General As""S M* s. Brisk, Captain Hope, left tke harbour on the afternoon of the 3rd, under sail, for Sydney, •where Captain Hope will assume command of the Australasian station. _ H.M. fl. Falcon, Captain Blake, is at present making the usual annual tour of the South Sea Islands, with leave to call at Tahiti, and instructions to take possession of Maiden Island on behalf of the Government. The Falcon will also call at the islands of the New Hebrides and the Fiji Is aods before returning to Sydney. fI.M. ■. Challenger wat Sydney, awaitmg the arrival of the new commodore of the Australian fleet. „.„,. ™ j Ihe ship's stores on board the brig Flying Cloud were brought on shore on the Bth by the sheriffs officers, and the few remaining passengers are consequently on their last egs. A number of them, who possess some means, express their determination to keep themselves on board the vessel for six months rather than yield possession of that which they still believe they hare the first hen upon for the non-fulfilment of the contract entered into ■with them for conveyance to San Franciico. On the other hand, we understand, the sequestrator s solicitors purpose putting the title of the vessel on •uch a footing as will enable him to take immediate possession, free of the paßsenaers. This, we presume, will be the next Scene in the narrative of the Flying CJoud., which has been "from time to time chronicled in these oolumns. No obstacle was thrown in the way of removal of the stores by the passengers on board, owing to late proceedings in the Magistrates Court. . „ .mi The little s.s. Midge, Captain Stewart, will commence running in the Northern trade to-day, as will be seen by announcement in our advertising columns. The vessel has been fitted up as we have already intimated, in a atyle of great superiority, and is now specially adapted to the Northern trade.. Her hqld has been altered to accommodate stock, whilst her passenger accommodation cannot be excelled. She nude a trial excursion on the Waitemata yesterday, »nd came alongside the wharf to take in cargo for Mongonui, the Bay of Islands, "Wangarti, and We understand that the result of the recent survey of Fiat Bock by Mr. Balfoor and Captain Burgess Will very "shortly be seen in the erection thereon of a permanent iron beacon for the guidance of manners entering and leaving the port, and to replace the lest substantial one recently carried away. The brig Nil Desperandum, Captam Delandelles, which put into this port disabled lome^ days ago, continued her passage to Dunedin on the sth mstant, hating undergone repairs, and discharged ha f her cargo of Newcastle coals at this port. She w under charter to a Dunedin firm for delivery of the coals and further freight. _ „ , The Sea Shell, a vessel hailing from the Soutn, nas been altered in rig from a cutter to » sch..o.er at Mr. Meildejohn's yard at Omaha, having put into Omaha for the alteration before continuing a voyage to the South Se« Islands. We have to record the total loss at Poverty Bay of the Auckland cutter Acnes, which drifted on to the rooka owing to the shifting of the channel haying deceived the master on entering the river. Ine wreckfwtn %0 \& for £32, the insurance on the yes being £400. I he Auckland cutter Grayling (late the Ooromandel trader Swab Alice), from Wairoa, while entering the Iron Pot, at Napier, on' Thursday we#k, took the ground on the Eastern Spit, and was driven on •bore. The wreck was sold for £50. -The N.Z S.N. Co.'s s.s. Taranaki sustained an injury to her wrew on her lajt trip from this port,

and had to be towed baok to Tauranga, after several days' delay, in order to be beached and repaired. The Anne Mclhuith has undergone a thorough overhaul on the patent slip at Newcastle since she was last here, having been re-coppeied, received a new stem, and other improvements. The chief officer »nd the remainder of the crew and passengers of the barque Torquil, which was run ashore in Spirits Bay, JSorth Oape, under citcumitances detailed in these columns, arrived in town on the 2ud by the schoouer Mariner. There were three able seamen, two passengers, the cook, a boy, and the chief officer. From the latter we learn that the wreok w»a awash ; and nothing further, with the exception of the foremast and yards, which wereNvashed ashore shortly before the schooner left, had been recovered from the vessel. Ine natives were able to visit the wreok at low tide, and h*d removed the only movable things, but nothing of moment was at aJI recoverable. The seamen were kindly accommodated and fed by Mr. Yates, settler, of Parensarenga, until the arrival of the Mariner, and feel themselves greatly indebted to th»t gentleman for hia kindness. The P., N.Z., and A.R M. Company's s.s. Auckland, Captain Harris, left the wharf at noon on the 2nd for Sydney, with the Suez mails, a general cargo, 3020z. of gold, &c, and the following passengers .-—Messrs. James Shields, A. Rippon, It. Kerr, D. Seligman, L. C. Brien, J. Sauerbier, Collins, T. Kelly, A. Trimble^ W. Daly, G. Grey*, McVamara, W. Swan, D.A.O.G.

The ship- Warwick, Captain Smith, sails to day, with a full cargo, valued at £45,000, and forty-six passengers, for London. The p.s. Enterprise No. 2 and the cutter Glance came into collision outside the Heads on the ni»ht of the 3rd July, and sustained some injury to their bulwarks, &c. The cutter had her bowsprit and five feet of the steinhead carried away, acd the steamer her pa«idle-box and bulwark* stove in. The Enterprise was bound out, and had her usnal lights burning The cutter was also burning a light, and it is difficult to say how the collision happened.
